Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Easy spin, BYU, so upsetting about the football delima, I am a Utah fan and alumni, but, BYU is second, hope they get an independent deal. Utah state is dumber than dumb, turning down the MWC.
What does this have to do with running? Well, nothing

lunch time - hard 12 minutes spin, 23 mph, 1 mile milly at 4% grade 9 min pace. The race last saturday beat me up.
First open water swim, Herriman with Dianamal, my swim coach and life gaurd. 500 yrds. It was not scary, the wet suit helped, had one momenet of panic when my goggles filled with water. Di stayed right along with me, coaching and keeping an eye on me. We chatted with several other triathletes, it was fun chit chatting about Tris. Also, they were all very supportive of my first open water swim. I was very excited to swim 500 yrds open water. This swim gave me confidence, I can do it.

JRP run with Sylive, we got a late start, hotter than expected, 12 was enough for me, rode with Sylive for her last 6, she ran 18, then rode 32 miles on the bike with a good effort. We seen many runners on the parkway, one of the running stores was sponsoring a run.
100 cruches with 20lbs, dumbell pull, bench press, fly and pulls, 3 wall squat and 3 bridges of one minute each. Good week of training. Did not seen the chumps, they been have been long gone before we started.
